That Lilly she's turning into a Farm Girl with a passion. So great seeing her Milk all by herself. Great work done by all. That Teddy is a pistol. Polar Plunging and jumping out of Sally to get to Rebekah. He really loves her. Stay Safe God Bless and Peace Be With You All ☮️🙏❣️
Hey quick tip with basil pinch the top two leaves off when they are both 1 cm long, doing so will cause the basil to make two shoots from that spot so you get more basil for your work!
**** For the Sheep-shaw, these are 26inch flat free, 300 lb cap (each) wheel replacements. Mount/Weld/clamp on old Bicycle forks. It will be more than 6x easier/less stress on the frame. $55 for each wheel. But it will be a totally diff machine to move. Try this, drag a bicycle sideways...that is what, 20 lbs? It is not easy. But not at 1000lbs. That is the Sheep shaw with smaller wheels. What does that sheep cage weigh? Now, drag that bike in a straight line, even with 200 lbs on it. It wants to roll. With 6 wheels, no sags, no snags, you will need a set of spikes to lock it down, each time you now park it! It will roll so easy~ **** Just an idea. Hope it helps too. 300 lbs x 6 = 1800 lbs cap. Nowhere near a strain either; will extend its life also! **** www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200660580_200660580
You must be beyond the moon proud of your children. I would say “Boots “ is bragging in heaven, see those children those are my grandchildren. They are so responsible and respectful.
I feel like you need jacks on your wheels so you can adjust the wheel heights. It will be more money up front, but it would eliminate a lot of your issues
Hi Justin, I've been watching your channel for over a year now. I absolutely love all that you're doing! My wife and I are a part of Akron Permaculture in Ohio. We homesteaded for 26 years. We just organic garden currently. I had a thought about your Luchadores pen. Have you ever thought about a third cable that attaches in the middle, just above that center wheel of the pen and runs back to the center of your existing cable? Just a thought. You have an incredible family and you love them so well and you guys are making a difference for many! May God continue to bless you, Todd Roberts
Have ben weld the castors on a peice of all thread. Then weld a nut on the frame then you could adjust the height with a socket and impact driver based on age of sheep.
Thank you Rhodes family, for filling a void during this oppressive shutdown. Seeing your piglets reminds me of the days when are kids were young, and we had many animals. We had a Red Duroc (sp?) we named Hamlet. My youngest spent a lot of time sitting with Hamlet in a playpen. She got so attached, that was one pig we had to sell rather than butcher.
Jonah and Josiah your new brier patch fort is awesome! I might have to build a fort like that! At our house we have lots of brier patches at our house and that is a good way to use them! And that treehouse is awesome! Can’t wait to see it when it’s finished! Keep posting videos!
If you added a third tether to the center wheel, when your pulling the ring along it will go much smoother. Currently the bind is causing that wheel to tilt down digging in instead of tilt up to ease that pressure on the tire. The fact the tire is deflated is the indicator of the fault, putting the tire on a post without the tether will only amplify the fault, not ease the pressure on it. The tether may be enough with an inflated tire to help reduction the friction as it will tilt the angle of force up away from your tight grass, allowing the tire to roll significantly reducing force required as a result.
OIC, very good reason to not pull the sheep pen with Sally. Well, hmmm. The extra ground clearance being raised up would help. But maybe putting larger wheels would help even more? I just hate to see ya'll struggle with it. I so enjoy and learn so much from your wonderful videos!
Another great video Justin. Thanks to you both for sharing. Always excited to see what you guys are up to and try to learn as much as I can for when I get my own place.
I'm very excited to see the progress you're making with the pigs and for the progress to come! Is the fact some of the chickens are eating eggs just an indicator they're not getting enough calcium?
How about adding a rope to that wheel and attach it to your corner ropes so that you’re pulling all the way across ? Don’t know if it will work. But maybe worth a try?
I have nothing but admiration for your videos and your children!! PLEASE DON'T LET THEM DIVE INTO THE CREEK until you can verify the depth. I'm not going to elaborate because the memory of injured children haunts me. Please just think about it....
Your eldest son is an absolute inspiration. However we are continually frustrated that he constantly apologises to you yet he is right in his problem solving......
I'm sorry he's disappointed you in the way. He's only being earnest bless his tender heart. He tries so hard to please. It's why I said, It's ok, Jonah.
If the pigs are harvested when they are too old their meat tastes a bit pis-y. It is not very appetizing. That has been my experience. I hope this is helpful.

Lilly is such an amazing little farmer. Love her to the moon and back. She is such a sweetheart.
You inspire me so much and I’m only 12 I hope to be like you someday.

So excited to see Randolph using that auger from Billy Goat Industries; my son designed it. :)
He's Brilliant then.
I love how involved the kids want to be with everything! I'm taking some tips to get my 10 year old a little more independent!

So stinking proud.

I love watching the piggies go into food commas.🐷💕

The kids are living the good life.
Love that little ladys dress. Shes so cute and love helping cook and work outside .(-:
The best!

Hey lily, some cows do have extra teats!!! They are called trick teats and they are just for decoration!
Your kids are priceless! It’s so easy to be their fans!!! Go Rhoades kids!

Hey all thanks for the video...always entertaining ❤
Glad you like them!
Permanent fence for the garden chickens sounds good, less work with re-positioning the fence etc. :)
That's the plan!
Yea! Now no leaks~ Super! You did it!
Another great video Justin. Thanks to you both for sharing. Always excited to see what you guys are up to and try to learn as much as I can for when I get my own place.
Thanks for watching!
Rhodes, can we get an update on your berry patch across the road? Been a while. Best of luck folks! Stay safe!
Yes, soon
Great job Lily 🎈👏🌻
Thank you 🤗
Can you tie a 3rd chain to the middle brace on the sheep pen?
that dog is crazy jumping in the cold water to follow becky
Hello everyone hope peoples days are going well
I'm very excited to see the progress you're making with the pigs and for the progress to come! Is the fact some of the chickens are eating eggs just an indicator they're not getting enough calcium?
I think so.
teddy learned a lesson of electric fence that day as well. doubt he be booping it again.
cute little piggies
Good vibes your way 💕
You too!!
I have kuni's with my cows and they go after the pies and spread them. Still have to get them on pasture.
That's the hope and plan.
Thanks for another great video!
My pleasure!
How about adding a rope to that wheel and attach it to your corner ropes so that you’re pulling all the way across ? Don’t know if it will work. But maybe worth a try?
Good job!
Thanks!
That pig riding looks fun 😂😂
Bigger tires, lift the bottom of the frame up and off of the uneven ground/grass.
เด็กๆเก่งมากก สุดยอดไปเลย
You need to get a spray or pellets that you put on the garden and it keep and animal and pets out
You could add another wire to the middle wheel for more leverage to pull the luchadores.
Make a bigger one for pigs if breading. They need plenty of room. Make sure you make a border for piglets when mom lays down as they can crush babys
What if you put a rope in the middle of the cage near the center wheel, with the ones you pull on the outside.
Justin either looks as old as I do or I look as young as he does. I'm 60. : ) Nice fence BTW.
Poor teddy🥺🥺🥺 are you planning to add bees to your farm ?

Ok, we don't.

Afternoon chores in flip flops!? 😂
Yeah Jonah! 👍👍💯💯
You need gates on your permanent fence by the road, might even suggest new fence too lol
Exelente video saludos
Nice! Good night 🇧🇷
Fill your tires with Green Slime- no more flats!!!
Maybe take the middle tire in the back & switch it with the flat one in the front ... for a temporary fix...
Hola linda familia
Move a wheel from the back to the front until it gets repaired
Why did yiu get goats??? Is it got the milk aswell?
A new wheel is better than a hernia 😊
Blow out the eggs and fill them with spicy mustard it will not harm the chickens it just helps you so they won't eat their on eggs
Just adding a friendly FYI. Teddy would do much better on a leash if he had on a harness halter instead of a collar
Thanks. We're using a harness most of the time.
Peppers and tomatoes would appreciate a heat mat to germinate
O' SNAP!!! She is not buying what your selling. ZING! lol
you can provide the subtitles in Spanish
Please
Couldn’t you use rollers. Logs. I’m. A little lady and I move a boat from storage to shore fairly easily.
Should have had more ground clearance on the wresting ring
Skid or foot might work better to slide not role
They make tires that don't need air.
Yeh, and we might have to do that, but they are heavier.
Got a hard tire for the boy sheep's home.
A two wheel dolly would lift the leading edge and give a pull handle
If the pigs are harvested when they are too old their meat tastes a bit pis-y. It is not very appetizing. That has been my experience. I hope this is helpful.
I don't think so. Sounds like you got boar taint from eating a boar.
Ride em cowboy!
Those piglets are getting big. They must eat like....well... pigs.
Pretty hilarious pig rodeo!
Why don’t you get him a stretchy lead
Cool
Cattle panels on rails
Please get a camera with a stabilizer already
Trim their beaks and put a hard fake egg in there and load em up on protein.
Hay justin can't you move your other sheep in front of your luchadores to eat down the gress a day ahead the the luchadoras?
We put the cows in there, but in the spring grass just grows crazy fast. Give it a month and it will chill out a bit.

Sheep really are not crawlers, you could easily go 10 inches off of the ground
